Marco Silva: Watford blame Everton as they sack manager

Watford have not won in their last five Premier League games and lost 2-0 on the weekend to Leicester, the Hornets are now sitting in tenth place in the Premier League Standings.

The Hornets swung the axe following a 2-0 defeat at Leicester City on Saturday which meant Silva had only managed to lead the club to one win in their last eleven Premier League games.

Watford felt that situation caused a "significant deterioration" in the their fortunes, a claim supported by the fact that the club have lost seven of the 10 league matches since Sam Allardyce took the reins at Goodison Park. As for his recent episode of disappointment with Stoke, it can simply be put down as a case of losing the dressing room albeit being a respected figure in English football.

Watford, who sit 10th in England's top flight, announced that the 47-year-old Spaniard had signed an 18-month contract, becoming the club's 10th manager since 2012.

On his appointment Gracia praised Watford's supporters, telling the club's website: "It's a special atmosphere and I'm very happy to feel this experience and to say thanks to them because I know they are the number one, and after the supporters will come the rest of the players".

"For the security and success of the football club, the board believes it has to make a change", Watford's statement said.

From Malaga he moved to Rubin Kazan for the 2016-17 season but left after they finished only ninth in the Russian League. His first game will be the FA Cup fourth-round tie against Southampton on Saturday.

But Watford's decision was based on Everton's pursuit of Silva in November, when the Merseyside club attempted to lure the Portuguese coach away from Vicarage Road.
